Premier Hockey Federation, previously known as the National Women’s Hockey League, announced that it will add a seventh franchise, in Montreal.
The Premier Hockey Federation announced on Tuesday that it will add a seventh franchise, in Montreal, for the 2022-23 season.“We are extremely excited to be able to announce today a project that’s been in the works and been thoroughly vetted for a number of months,” said PHF commissioner Reagan Carey. “I appreciate everybody’s patience. I started just a few days over two months ago, and that has been circled on my list as a top priority since day one.
“There’s so many areas to gather information from and to leverage research that’s being done and to better understand the women’s sports market in general,” Carey said. “Also what’s great for hockey, teammates, like the sports innovation lab has been really helpful in informing us about the trends and areas that demonstrate where we could thrive, as well as just our own research and working with markets that want to work with us.
The Professional Women’s Hockey Players Association, a nonprofit founded in May 2019 following the dissolution of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League and a rival to the PHF, broke off talks with PHF because the leagues’ objectives were not aligned. The PWHPA plans to begin play within a year. Many of the top players from the United States and Canadian Olympic teams plan to play in the yet-to-be-announced league.
